He has worked for major players such as Lukoil, Doyen Auto, Volvo Cars, Jaguar Land Rover, Tesla and Pininfarina, with a particular focus on China during this last stage.

But his expertise is not limited to the automotive industry. Yves has also founded and developed companies in electric mobility (Chargeo) and Sicilian wine importation (Buonissimo Wines), demonstrating his ability to innovate and create value in a variety of sectors.

 

An asset for our clients in industry, renewables, mobility, retail and consumer goods

Thanks to his strong network and cross-functional vision, Yves will be a valuable partner for all our clients, not only in the automotive sector, but also in:

  • Industry and industrial transformation

Please do not hesitate to contact Yves for any project requiring an international approach, a detailed understanding of European and Asian markets, or specialised expertise in mobility and industry.

His arrival fits perfectly with numaH’s DNA: openness, expertise, multiculturalism and innovation at the service of our clients. With Yves, numaH is strengthening its international expertise and its already highly developed automotive division, and is continuing to develop the Italian market with three consultants now based in that country.
